"nothing."
Chen Bing came back to his senses, lowered his head and murmured, "If I can go back this time, it will be time to go to the top of the snow mountain to retreat. Maybe I can break through the Art of Forgetfulness to the third level."
Li Mengyun said, "Senior sister, why do you have to practice the Art of Forgetting Love? I heard that even the Valley Master doesn't practice it?"
Chen Bing frowned, "It's not that the Valley Master didn't practice, it's that he didn't hold on..."
"Huh? What does that mean..."
"Mengyun, there are some things you shouldn't ask. Keep your mouth shut and don't get yourself into trouble..."
"Oh, I know."
Li Mengyun stuck out his tongue playfully and stopped asking about the matter.
the other side.
Lu Li and Zhu Rong walked side by side. As they walked, Lu Li tentatively asked about the previous attack. When he heard the words 'Bounty Pavilion', Lu Li frowned involuntarily.
I thought to myself, could it be another name for Zhai Xing Tower, or could it be the branch to which Zhai Xing Tower belongs?
Why do these people want to deal with the Valley of Forgetfulness? Moreover, it is at a time when monsters are threatening the situation. Isn't it a bit too unkind to have such a timing?
Even someone like Lu Li, who was used to 'keeping to himself', felt that this approach was a bit too much.
Even if there is a grudge or a mission, it can be resolved after the beast tide.
After chatting briefly, Lu Li returned to the team at Yuxu Palace.
What makes Lu Li satisfied is that this time, everyone in Yuxu Palace is alive and well, and no one has died. Although seven or eight people were seriously injured, and others were more or less injured, as long as people are still alive, that is Fortunately.
Moreover, these people have gained a lot, and they must be able to redeem a lot of contributions when they go back.
Considering that there were still four cities in the north that might be in trouble, everyone did not recover for long before they were summoned again.
The Wangqing Valley disciples in Jiyun City suffered heavy losses. It is said that there were more than ninety foundation-building monks stationed here, but now there are less than fifty left.
Together with some other casual cultivators and sect disciples, there are only more than sixty foundation-building cultivators left.
In the end, Hua Qianshu decided to take half of them, that is, thirty-two people, and join Lu Li's team. In this case, Lu Li's team would have about one hundred and forty people.
Coupled with Lu Li's three golden elixir masters, this lineup is not bad at all.
The spirit boat took off.
...
In a blink of an eye.
Early August.
A full month has passed since Lu Li arrived at Bowang City.
On this day, Lu Li and his party finally arrived at the last of the six gateway cities, Wangyou City.
This is the city gate that is personally guarded by Yao Muzi, the owner of Wangqing Valley.
It is also the last stop of this operation to eliminate the monsters.
At this time, the atmosphere on the spirit boat was a bit heavy. Hua Qianshu and Zhu Rong sat cross-legged on the bow of the boat without saying a word.
Standing on the deck, the Wangqinggu disciples in the corridor also looked downcast.
Nothing else.
The three, four and five elders of the Valley of Forgetfulness are all dead. They blew up their golden elixirs and died together with the big demon.
More than 70% of the disciples stationed in the three major cities were killed or injured, with mutilated limbs everywhere, and blood staining the city walls...it was quite tragic.
It can be said that after this battle, Wangqing Valley, like Taixuan Dao Sect, will never be able to return to its past. The death of the three elders was not the worst loss. Those two to three hundred foundation-building geniuses really cannot be cultivated overnight. ah...
If Lu Li and the others hadn't left the whole group behind and traveled all the way, it would have been hard to say whether anyone would have survived, let alone 30%.
Because those second-level monsters would not retreat due to the death of the big monster, but instead attacked more fiercely, making the monks who were already unable to withstand it even worse.
Today's Wangyou City looks very peaceful. Except for the traces left by the battle, there are no monsters staying outside the city.
There are not many disciples guarding the city wall. There is only one disciple stationed a hundred feet away, and his cultivation level is not high, just the level of Qi training.
When these people saw the spirit boat speeding up in the southern sky, they all raised their heads involuntarily. The word "Yuxu" made them relax and let the spirit boat fly over their heads.
When they arrived at the fifth city, Lu Li and others already knew the situation in Wangyou City, so there was no surprise about it.
The spirit boat landed directly on the square of the City Lord's Mansion.
There are many casual cultivators and some Wangqinggu disciples here.
As soon as it came to a stop, a woman in purple robes at the peak of her abilities flew down from the deck and landed in front of the hall. She saluted the middle-aged woman in purple robes and said, "Master, I'm back."
This person is none other than Song Qing, the first core member of Wangqing Valley who was sent by Yao Muzi to help eliminate demons.
Lu Li and his party met her in the fifth city. At that time, she was besieged by several second-level monsters. She was exhausted and almost in danger. If Lu Li and the others hadn't taken action in time, she might not have come back alive.
Seeing Song Qing coming down, Yao Muzi couldn't help but look slightly relieved, nodded and asked, "How is it?"
Song Qing lowered her head and said with slightly red eyes, "The situation is not very good. Let the elders tell the master..."
While the two were talking, everyone was walking down one after another.
The two elders, Lu Li and Hua Qianshu, walked towards Yao Muzi together. Lu Li walked beside him, half a step behind. After the two of them had finished greeting, he said, "Lu Li of Yuxu Palace, I have met the Valley Master."
Zhu Rong had already introduced Lu Li. When she heard this, she couldn't hide her shock and said, "It is indeed the Yuxu Palace. It has produced such a genius elder again. Elder Lu doesn't need to be more polite. Call me Sister Yao, or Senior Sister." That’s it.”
"Well."
Lu Li didn't expect this late-stage master to be so gentle. He was stunned for a moment and then said with a faint smile, "I've met Senior Sister Yao."
Seeing this situation, Hua Qianshu and Zhu Rong couldn't hide the disbelief in their eyes.
It was rumored that their Lord, the Valley Master, had been hurt by love before joining the Valley of Forgetfulness. He had hated men the most in his life. He never expected that he would be so polite to Lu Li.
Of course, they had to admit that Lu Li was indeed excellent.
Good character, good talent, strong strength... simply, let alone, if I were hundreds of years younger... Hehe.
I just don't know if Lu Li would spit out what these two old women were thinking at this moment.
Yao Muzi smiled and nodded, "Junior brother Lu must have been working hard all the way. How about I arrange a place for you to rest temporarily. Senior sister, I will deal with some things first and talk to junior brother later?"
"No problem at all."
Lu Li understood Yao Muzi's mood very well at this time, and the battle situation in the south was not good. It was hard to predict that this 'Senior Sister Yao' would burst into tears in a while. He didn't want to stay here and make others uncomfortable.
Afterwards, Lu Li, led by a female disciple, summoned the people from Yuxu Palace and headed towards the east courtyard together...
